WORLD BEST BANANA BREAD RECIPES

Steps:

• Cream sugar, salt, and butter (or margarine) with a beater.
• Then add the 2 eggs and 3 mashed bananas to the above mixture and blend well.
• In a separate bowl, add baking soda plus the flour. Sift and mix.
• Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture (of sugar, salt, butter, and banana mixture). Mix all until just blended. Then add the chopped nuts.
• Pour batter into a greased loaf pan. Bake at 325 degrees for about 1 hour or until brown. You can stick a toothpick into the center and if it comes out clean, it's done. Do not overbake. Start checking with a toothpick as soon as it starts looking a little brown which will be at one hour.
• I like to drizzle a little powered sugar frosting over the top while it is still warm, or just spread a little butter over the top instead. I prefer, the drizzle of frosting; however. It is a wonderful bread and the best banana bread I have ever eaten. My grandmother clipped it out of the Omaha World Herald newspaper around 1958.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350º. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and grease with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In another large bowl, mix together melted butter, sugar, egg and egg yolk, sour cream, and vanilla. Add mashed bananas and stir until combined. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until just combined.  Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts and transfer to prepared loaf pan. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool 10 minutes in pan, then turn out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
